Veterans Day Program: Smoky the War Dog
November 11, 2023, 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
FreeOn Veterans Day, listen to Adrian Brigham tell the story of one of the most decorated dogs in history for her service during WWII. Smoky was found trapped in an abandoned foxhole in Papua New Guinea and went on to become the best mascot of the South Pacific, the world’s first official Therapy Dog of record, and a medal of honor recipient for her bravery in the Philippines. It is a story that warms the hearts of all who hear it! Also, meet Hairy, a therapy dog not unlike Smoky.
